imeaoven stove.

To @ZZ whom z5 may concern:

Be it known that I, LUTHER Envuve, of Brooklyn, in the county of Kings and State of N ew Yorlghave invented a new and Improved Gas-Stove and l do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description thereof, which will enable others skilledA in the art to make and use the same, reference being hadv to thel accompanyingdrawings, forming part of this speciiication, in which- Figure lis an elevation of my invention.; Fig. 2,a vertical central section of the saine', taken in the line Fig. l; Fig. 3, a plan or top view ofthe saine; Fig. 4, a horizontal sec-v tion of the same looking upward, takeninthe line yy, Fig. 2, y

Similar letters of reference indicate likev parts.

This invention relates to a new and improved stove for heating apartments, cooking, 85e., by gas such as is-used for illuminating purposes. The invention consists in the employment or use of a gas chamber or reservoir in connection; with a combined air and gas receiver and a series of dues, all arranged and combined in such a manner as to insure ythe perfect combustion of all the gas which passes into the stove and the radiation of all heat generated by said combustion.

. A. represents the lower part of the stove, which may be of castiron, and is supported on a base, B, provided with feet a, the base having holes b in it to admit of the'entrance of air into the stove.

C represents a gaspipe the lower end of which is curved upward and passes through the center of the base B, and communicates with a chamber, D, within the lower part', A, of the stove, said chamber having a perforated top, E, as shown clearly in Fig. 2.

F is an upright flue, which is attached to 'the upper end of A, and has suspended from its lower end by rod c, a conical chamber, G, which is corrugated in order to obtain as large a heatradiating surface as possible. This ehambe, G extends down into the upper part of A, and is directly overbut some distance above theto of thechamber D, as shown in Fig, 2. T e ilue'F is encompassed bya cylinder, G', the lower end of which rests on the g lower part, A, of the stove,and the cylinder (i is encompassed by a cylinder, H, the lower end of which also rests on A. The two cylinders G H form ilues I J, as the cylinder Gr islarger; y

in diameter than F, and the cylinder H larger in diameter than Gf, as shown clearly in Fig. 2. rlhe lues F I' are covered by ahoizontal plate,

K, and this plateextends across the flue J, but iswperforated with holes d directly over with a top,' L, which has a register, M.

The operation is as follows: The gas-jet'i's at.the'end of the pipe C in the chamber D, and

thegas is consumed at the exterior of the perf forated top Eef D.' Any 'gas which may `es cape from E nnconsumed is arrestedbyrtlre chamber G and becomes mixed or inzc'orpe` rated with air which vpasses up into the stove through the' openings b. This gas mixed with air is consumed in G, the latter radiatingheat in the lower part, A., of the stove. The heat or products of combustion pass up the iiue F through holes f in the upper part of F, down the flue I, and through holes g in the lower end thereof'into the-due J, land thence up through J, passingout either at the holes cor through theregister Ms By this arrangemen't all the gas is consumed in the stove, the combined air and gas-chambe'rGr arranged ,relati'vely with the chamberD, as shown, eifectin g that result, while the arrangement of tlues` as described, insures a perfect radiation of the heat. f i

l claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent- A i y 1. Thel gaschamber D,providedwith a perforated top, E, in combination with the air and gas chamber G, all arranged substantially as and for the purpose herein set forth.

2. The arrangementof the ilues F I J, when used in combination with the gas-chamber D;

and air andy gas chamber G, substantially as for the purpose specified.
